　　学习网Before going outside in the morning，many of us check a window thermometer (温度计) for the temperature.This helps us decide what to wear.1.

　　We want our food to be a certain coldness in the refrigerator.We want it a certain hotness in the oven.If we don’t feel well，we use a thermometer to see if we have a fever.We keep our rooms a certain warmth in the winter and a certain coolness in the summer.

　　Not all the thermometers use the same system to measure temperature.We use a system called the Fahrenheit scale.But most other countries use the Centigrade scale.

　　Both systems use the freezing and boiling points of water as their guide.2.

　　The most common kind of thermometer is made with mercury (水银) inside a clear glass tube.As mercury (or any other liquid) becomes hot，it expands.As it gets colder，it contracts (收缩)．That is why on hot days the mercury line is high in the glass tube.3.
